Pros

Belkin thunderbolt 4 cable is almost scary fast and is capable of transferring faster than most things that i can connect to it. Uses a 140w charging brick with this cable the charging speed is equal to that of magsafe charging. Using this to work liv...  Read More

Although it's a bit pricey that's kind of the cost of thunderbolt cables currently. Overall, highly recommend this cable. And the bottom line is that this is a fantastic cable.

This cable runs from my thunderbolt hub, made by anker, to my dell xps 9300. It's backwards compatible with usb 3 and thunderbolt 3 so it can work with a broad swath of computers.

Good build and should last for years, and a much better value than something like an apple branded cable. Belkin is the only non-oem brand that i trust for any type of cable or accessory. I usually only use genuine apple thunderbolt cables because i k...  Read More



Cons

I use this a couple time a week and it no longer can securely connect to my phone, whether it be for power or for data. Still hard to justify the price tag.

Quality


High quality cable, thick but flexible and just the right length for desktop use.


This is a high quality cable that works really well.


I spent months tracking down plenty of issues with my thunderbolt 3 egpu setup: stutters, the occasional bsod, audio issues, pe...  Read More


Several motherboards i tested did not properly conform to usb-c specifications, causing the cable not to work properly.

Price


Even at full retail this cable is worth the price.


8m cable is about $130, making this cable ($80 at the time of writing) a comparative bargain.


I was excited to find that belkin had released their cable for nearly half the price at only $70.


From a value perspective, i think $70 is a little rich for a cable.

Shipping


The replacement arrived a few days later, and had the exact same troubles.


Transfers are fast and charging is fast.

Competitiveness


In terms of price, belkin is a higher-end company, and on par with oem apple devices.


Belkin is a brand i trust and rely on, so it's an excellent alternative to apple's version.


Although this cable is more than generics, it's half the price of an apple product.


I was using other brands with my ipad and it couldn’t keep it charged while i was using it simultaneously.

    My only issue with this cable is that its very expensive for what it is


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However if you want a reliable connection with your equipment i guess you have to pay the price


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Unlike many other cables this is not made of nylon fiber which actually made it get frayed and damaged a bit easier


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I could actually go a bit further with my laptop


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    You can plug it into a thunderbolt device or any type c port


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Even if you happen to tap the cable a little bit it does not lose connection
